Ronaldo tops Serie A with £538,000-a-week pay
Ronaldo is, however, yet to justify that premium, having failed to score for the Serie A champions in his first three outings since moving in a £100m transfer from Real Madrid in the summer.
The 33-year-old saw his pay packet get bumped up dramatically after swapping the Spanish capital for northern Italy, largely owing to Fiat agreeing to shoulder the burden of his huge £28m-a-year wages.
Only Lionel Messi (£40.5m a year) at Barcelona and Neymar (£31.7m) at Paris Saint-Germain bag more money than Ronaldo.
According to a report in Gazzetta dello Sport, Ronaldo picks up a massive pay check of £538,000 every week.
